Hi Fox: Thank you for the welcome! <how did you get introduced to Pennsaid> I was introduced to Pennsaid years ago by an investor (you know, a friend of a friend’s friend) whom I met at a gold show in Toronto. I did my DD and began investing. Since then I have been in and out of the stock several times. In April, when the Italian Ministry of Health approved Pennasaid for commercial distribution, (I saw the news in the “Gazzetta Ufficiale”, is the government paper listing all legislative decisions) I bought back a small position. Since then I added bit by bit on weakness, and I am holding for the long term. <(i) the effectiveness of the advertising for Pennsaid in Italy Italchimici is in the process of creating their web site in English.

In Italy what the doctor “orders” is what patients take (I guess it is so in most countries). Anyway, their approach is to get doctors familiar with their products. Pennasaid is already listed in the “Prontuario medico” (the equivalent of the Physicians Deck Reference Book. (ii) the anticipated acceptance for this type (i.e. a topical, versus a pill) of treatment for oa. Topical treatments are very well accepted: they are part of our culture and history.

When I was there in August I came down with an annoying bronchitis and I was taking some antibiotics. My aunt (89 years old. We call her the Healer), said to me “Forget those pills, take a linen cloth, put in it some poison ivy leaves, some buttercup flower, some …etc. I am not kidding you, this is a true story. Hope this answer your questions, Ciao and cheers Anna
